Hearing the serious tone of the column's political commissar Chen Hanzhang coming from the earphones, Hai Jingqing said quickly: "Political commissar, we are now entangled with the Japanese troops in front of us. Please rest assured, I promise to complete the tasks assigned by the superior commander.
Mission. I will never let go of this Japanese army until reinforcements arrive."
Hai Jingqing put down the communication device in his hand and secretly called out "Lucky" in his heart. He raised it again and looked at the six or seven hundred Japanese troops remaining on the battlefield. He said to the combat staff beside him: "I don't know what these little devils have done."
The unethical thing made Political Commissar Chen so anxious that he made so much effort for these thousands of Japs and mobilized so many troops in one go."
"The column has been formed for such a long time. This is the first time that political commissar Chen has mobilized so many troops for such a small amount of Japanese soldiers when the fighting in other places is still intense. In the first stage, we have a tug-of-war with these little Japanese soldiers.
At that time, no matter how unfavorable the situation was, the political commissar had never been so angry."
Having said this, Hai Jingqing looked at the situation on the battlefield again, thought for a while and said: "We can't continue fighting like this. Our soldiers rushed to Deshan again after a long and urgent march without any rest.
Coupled with the long detour, I ran so much in vain, and my physical strength declined quickly."
"Although we have the advantage at the moment, if we continue to fight like this, we don't know how long our soldiers' physical strength can last. Even if we eat all the little devils, our casualties will be heavy. These little devils are quite tyrannical.
Tight, although we understand their weaknesses and have advantages in equipment, if the little devils try to fight to the death, we will not be in a good position."
"More than half an hour has passed. Although we have killed three to four hundred Japanese, we have also suffered a lot of casualties. In this way, you take the heavy machine gun battery and all the anti-aircraft machine guns and go back behind them. Tell the artillery to prepare for battle.
Inform the troops to withdraw when they receive the order. Except for one company that will circle back to your machine gun position to make final preparations to deal with these Japs, the rest will block other directions with crossfire on the perimeter of the Japs.
That’s it.”
"This time I marched eastward, I brought so many machine gun bullets. How can I use them now? And the more than a hundred rounds of mortar shells, they were all fired at me. Don't the Japanese always like to bully people with firepower?"
So today we will follow the example of the Japanese and use machine gun fire to destroy them. The provincial regimental commanders and others will come over to grab food. I want to devour these Japanese for myself today."
Hai Jingqing's tactical adjustment confused Gao Shanguifu. However, although he did not understand why the opponent in front of him suddenly withdrew despite having all the advantages. But he also knew that this was not the case.
The opponent had good intentions and let him go at the critical moment.
Although he has not figured out what his opponent is going to do, Takayama Turtle has no intention of wasting this, which may be his last chance to escape. In his opinion, no matter what the opponent's conspiracy is, he still has no intention of wasting it.
This was finally a rare opportunity for me to take a breather.
After the opponent's sudden retreat, Takayama Turtle breathed a sigh of relief and quickly adjusted his deployment. He repeated his old trick and arranged the remaining troops into a dense formation, preparing to continue heading east to break out of the encirclement.
In his opinion, the opponent's main force should still be on the west bank of the Ant River and due south of him, fighting fiercely with the 59th Regiment. If his predictions were correct, then no matter how their deployment was, the depths to the east would still be there.
will be empty.
If you go east with all your strength, as long as you get rid of this opponent, you still have a chance of survival. If you go directly south, you might run into the opponent's heavy troop group.
After quickly making up his mind, Takayama Turtle rejected the suggestion of Zuoyi Ampei and the other officers who survived the close battle to break out to the south with all their strength to join the 59th Regiment, and still decided to continue to break out to the east. After he
It seems that only towards the east can there be a chance of survival.
For other officers who stubbornly believed that the east was the only way to survive, they all believed that Deshan's successful breakout was just a fluke. And this kind of luck is difficult to copy. The opportunity may appear once, but it does not mean that it will happen again.
It reoccurred for the second time. As a qualified battlefield commander, mistakes or misjudgments may make you sleepless. But this mistake and misjudgment will definitely not happen a second time.
Therefore, the rest of the people did not agree with Takayama Kameo's plan to break out to the east with all his strength. However, Takayama Kameo is currently the person with the highest military rank and the only captain of the Colonel Corps. He is also the highest commander on the battlefield recommended by everyone.
Officials. No matter from which aspect, they can only obey the orders of the turtle husband on the mountain.
Among the current survivors, the 15th Regiment accounts for the majority. In the hand-to-hand battle that just ended, almost all the artillerymen who were temporarily rerouted and were not good at this type of combat were thrown there. As for the original number
There are not many heavy troops, and there are very few left. With this premise, Gao Shanguifu can basically turn a blind eye to other people's objections.
In fact, Gao Shanguifu did not make a mistake in his judgment. Compared with the reinforcements that his opponent was rapidly adding from the north and south, the east he chose again was indeed the weakest defense of his opponent. For him and his remaining men,
He said that if he was lucky enough to be able to break through the firepower network set by his opponent, escaping would not be a pipe dream.
Maybe he thought that his opponent would set up an ambush circle in the east but didn't pay attention to it. Maybe he didn't think about it. But his choice this time was undoubtedly a complete blow to the hundreds of Japanese soldiers still surviving in the eastern part of Deshan.
Pushed into the fire pit, and finally ruined the lives of hundreds of people.
Although Takayama Turtle's prediction was not wrong, the opponent's strength in the east was indeed not that large. But he did not know that his opponent would use almost all the firepower of heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, as well as some light machine guns and two 82-guns.
The artillery firemen were all concentrated on the east side, waiting for him to trap him.
When the Japanese troops, who were lined up in a dense formation, raised their Type 99 rifles with bayonets and tried their best to break out eastward, several rounds of flares rose into the sky again, illuminating the Japanese troops' breakout formation brightly.
And almost at the same time as these illumination bombs soared into the sky, intensive machine gunfire, accompanied by the whistling of mortar shells piercing the air, rang out almost simultaneously.
The dense rain of bullets will knock down the Japanese troops who lined up in a dense formation and tried to tear an exit from the opponent's position with their bayonets. At the same time, in this small space, it can be called an overwhelming force.
Mortar shells also hit. Every exploding mortar shell took away the lives of five, six, or even more than ten Japanese soldiers.
I heard that at least six heavy machine guns and two or more large-caliber machine guns were concentrated in front of me, as well as the rain of mortar shells coming from the other side. I saw that under the intensive firepower of the other side, soldiers were knocked down in droves.
Although it was only then that he realized that his opponent's previous retreat was not to wait for reinforcements, but because he did not want to cause too many casualties to himself, so he changed his approach and adopted the tactics of killing himself with firepower. But Takayama Turtle did not hesitate at all, let alone changed his mind.
, still leading his men to charge forward desperately against the opponent's fire net.
In his view, the place where the opponent's firepower is most intensive may mean that his troops are also the weakest. As long as he can break through the opponent's machine gun position, he will have a way out. For him, no matter what lies ahead is hell.
Okay, whether it's a fire pit or a fire pit, if you rush out, you will win.
But the intensive crossfire formed by six heavy machine guns, two anti-aircraft machine guns, and six light machine guns, coupled with the desperate firing of two mortars regardless of the consumption of shells. This breakout battle was for him and his men.
It was no better than walking in hell. Although the Japanese soldiers attacked desperately, they were still unable to break through the firepower network formed by their opponents.
Facing the dense firepower network in front of them, even though the Japanese soldiers were extremely brave and fearless of death, they still couldn't resist the steel. When they suddenly reached a distance of less than a hundred meters from the opponent's position, the number of people had dropped from six to seven hundred.
When there were less than 200 people, these Japanese troops were unable to attack.
Although the strength of the troops at this moment is less than one-third of what it was before the breakout, and they can no longer attack, Gao Shanguifu does not intend to bow his head. Although the casualties are huge at present, for those who have lost all the remaining troops in the breakout
With several Type 99 machine guns, he was finally within the effective range of the grenade, the only remaining support weapon on hand.
After commanding the remaining soldiers to build the bodies of the fallen soldiers into simple fortifications, Takayama Turtle concentrated his remaining three grenades and the last seven grenades, and launched a fire attack on the opponent's exposed machine gun fire points. In an attempt
Adopting his usual tactics in the pass, using the grenade is simple to operate and does not require the performance of a launching position. Blow up a few machine guns and open up the final breakout route for yourself.
But Takayama Turtle's calculation was wrong this time. His plan to use the corpses of dead soldiers to build fortifications to create opportunities for grenade launches encountered setbacks at first.
His body fortification had just been built, and the barrels had been replaced on the opposite position. The bullets from the 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun that rang out again easily penetrated the simple bunker he had built with his corpse, and also hit the Japanese soldiers inside.
Killed.
Braving the machine gun bullets fired by their opponents, the Japanese soldiers finally managed to drag the corpses of their comrades into a bunker where they could barely hide. Only then did they realize that their bunker was almost useless in front of the opponent's large-caliber machine gun.
Both. The opponent's machine guns can also easily penetrate their bunkers and knock down every Japanese soldier who tries to stand up.
As for Gaoshan Guifu's opponent, Hai Jingqing had also prevented this move long ago. When he saw the Japanese troops lying less than a hundred meters away from the machine gun position, he stopped the attack. He was also very familiar with grenade launchers and Japanese military equipment.
Hai Jingqing, can’t you guess the intention of the turtle man on the mountain?
As early as the moment the Japanese army stopped charging, Hai Jingqing, who knew that this Japanese army was probably going to struggle to the death, immediately issued an order without any hesitation. Let the artillery use the more than 40 mortar shells left on hand to destroy the Japanese army.
A simple position was temporarily constructed using corpses, especially the front which was carefully plowed.
